Placing the tibial component of an ankle prosthesis: results of a CT-based simulation in healthy adults.
Article in European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeTo characterize the 3D geometry of the distal tibia resection area from healthy individuals using CT-based digital implantation for proper preoperative sizing of TAA tibia component placement.
methodsStandardized CT images of healthy ankle joints serving as intra-individual references for treatment of contralateral injuries were identified. The tibial cross section dedicated to virtually host the tibial component was digitally prepared, and the size of the virtual contact surface was calculated. Finally, out of five prototypes the one fitting best in terms of size and alignment was identified.
resultsCT scans taken from 319 subjects were used for the virtual implantation procedure. Body height and size of the distal tibia contact area correlated (r = 0.49 and 0.42 in females and males, each p < 0.001). Prosthesis sizes 2 and 3 fit well for the vast majority of patients, while the smallest and largest sizes are rarely required.
conclusionsDigital implantation of the tibial component should be considered a valuable tool for preoperative planning as well as for the development of new implant types.
